The location on a small lake/pond attracts water birds which is lovely. The hotel is well kept but there is a great deal of litter in the immediate surroundings, which detracts from the property.

Very nice hotel. No elevator

Very nice, clean hotel. Lobby was beautiful with great views of the pond. Staff was friendly. The only drawback was the lack of an elevator. A staff person explained the origins of this phenomenon as it related to an archaic county law. Unfortunately, this still presents a problem for anyone with mobility issues. People assume that a multi story hotel has elevators. Putting that absence into the general list of the hotel’s of amenities is not enough. Despite this problem, this hotel is a lovely place to stay.

Staff was inattentive, areas were no cleaned or prepared for our stay, lack of hospitality and horrible accommodation. Addressed concerns about the condition of the room and tgat it was not clean and the shower was unacceptable, was not offered anything for the inconvenience and was told that there was nothing they could do about the shower and was told that it is out of their control about the water conditions. Pool area did not have any lights on and the pool jets were not even on while guest with their children were in the area. I will not recommend this property to anyone, the lack of empathy, hospitality and accommodation was the worst I've experienced.

Dumpster

It’s hard to put all the things wrong into a review that anyone will read. To get to the point, this place is a dumpster fire floating down the river. Be warned: they do not provide room service of any kind. I stayed here for two weeks for a project and had to beg for toilet paper and take out my own trash. My deck was so rotted and falling apart that is unsafe. I told the lady at the front, and she said someone was “working on it”. After the railing fell off, I collected it downstairs, brought her the lumber, and wrote my room number on it. If ownership doesn’t train their employees to prioritize liabilities, they will certainly pay for it in the court room. This is a great place to stay if you want to file a lawsuit against this hotel.

I would recommend this hotel for anyone looking to stay outside of Chicago or for going to the dunes. The breakfast was very simple, pool area was big and hotel was clean.
